I would suppose basicly each map in Nexuiz would gain from those bigger light maps without costs (well when the next release is out and you have an engine that supports this change)
Does anyone have time to take radiant and recompile each map with big external light maps (and maybe test it in a development engine)??

1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again
You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

Just a noob question. Do these lightmaps have an effect on player models? Like when you're walking through shadow your character gets shadowed and stuff?
As long as overbright skins are disabled of course.

Sure, indirectly, but that is not more sharp now. The light grid stayed at the same resolution, as it would otherwise take up MUCH more space.
